35. id, namely, the evolution of A as a function of c has a strong hysteresis that encloses the ideal value corresponding to the ideal energy minimum.
36. In Fig. 5(a), it seems that the first stable pattern (with the original value of contraction c=0.7) is slightly different to the rest, having less polygons with six, and more with five and seven sides. We cannot tell at this point if this is systematic or associated to statistical fluctuations.
